Odell Beckham Jr. Posts Troubling Video

The New York Giants are aware of a potentially troubling video that wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. posted Friday while on a Nike-sponsored trip in Europe. The clip posted on social media shows Beckham in a bed holding what appears to be a brown cigarette or cigar. There is a woman next to him with a credit card and what looks like a white powdery substance aligned in rows. "We're aware of the video, but we don't have any comment beyond that," a Giants team spokesman said via email Friday night. OBJ is looking for a lucrative long-term extension this offseason, so this video is in very poor timing on his part. Beckham has been known to be somewhat of a hothead on the field and sidelines, but on the field, his athleticism and football abilities make him one of the most talented receivers in football. It's unclear what may come of this video, but it's another reminder that his eccentric and often controversial personality may not take too well with the new coaching staff.

Odell Beckham Jr. Names His Price

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is looking for a new deal, and NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports Beckham has told people close to him he is targeting over $20 million per year on a new deal. Beckham is signed for one more year at $8.5 million, so contract extension talks have already begun. "He's in the twenties (million per year)," said Garafolo regarding Beckham's asking price in annual average. "He wants to be in the low twenties." The "low twenties" is lower-end franchise quarterback money. Steelers receiver Antonio Brown is presently the NFL's highest paid receiver at $17 million per year.

Odell Beckham Jr. Doesn't Want To Play In The Preseason

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. posted on his Twitter account that he doesn't want to play any preseason snaps this year. While the Giants probably won't use him much in the preseason, he should be expected to play at least some snaps as he's looking to bounce back from a 2017 season that saw him play in just four games due to a serious ankle injury. OBJ, if fully healthy, should remain one of the most talented and productive fantasy wideouts, and he may even come at a slight discount.
